| Obverse description | Printed in brown and black, the obverse is framed on all sides by a repeating guilloche border incorporating the numeral '10', with 'SALISBURY ISSUE' in vertical letterpress along both side margins. The bank title 'THE STANDARD BANK OF SOUTH AFRICA, LIMITED.' and 'DURBAN BRANCH.' are set at the top centre, with the denomination '£10' in large bold type to the upper right, while a central letterpress promise-to-pay text dated 27th August 1896 is flanked by an ornamental vignette panel bearing the word 'TEN'. Signature lines for the Board of Directors and Accountant appear at the foot, and this example carries a red 'CANCELLED' overprint together with a perforated 'SPECIMEN' punch cancellation. |
